Last semester, I went to Rose Hill campus with my friends twice for leadership program and university football game. Compared with Manhattan, a totally different view in rose hill refresh us.



Our Rose Hill campus, in the north Bronx, is as idyllic as college campuses get: 85 acres featuring Gothic architecture and tree-lined walkways.



There’s even more to it than that, as we’re right across the street from the incredibly lush New York Botanical Garden. You’ll find Fordham College at Rose Hill, the Gabelli School of Business, and graduate programs in Arts and Sciences, and Religion and Religious Education here.




The campus was established in 1841 as St. John’s College by the Right Rev. John Hughes, Coadjutor-Bishop (later Archbishop) of New York, on old Rose Hill Manor in the village of Fordham, then part of Westchester County. The name Fordham is derived from the Anglo-Saxon words “ford” and “ham,” meaning a wading place or ford by a settlement.




The College’s name was officially changed to Fordham University in 1907.

To be honest, I don’t like the dining environment in this restaurant, and the service is not enthusiastic enough. Dining Environment We got all the Dim Sum on the menu and ordered one Stir Fried Diced Beef w. Mango. I have tasted many Dim Sum restaurants, but I don’t think the Dim Sum provided by Asian Jewels Seafood Restaurant has something special. Dim Sum, Stir Fried Diced Beef w. Mango  Although Dim Sum made me feel a little disappointed, the Stir Fried Diced Beef w. Mango tasted crazy good! The beef in this dish was very soft and the mango was very refreshing. Partial sweet and spicy taste, don’t recommend people who
